LoopSim framework aims to facilitate workflows with loops i.e workflows without specific start and end services. LoopSim requires an interface to create these types of workflows using some kind of graph.
It currently relies on a Closed Source software yEd - Graph Editor for workflow creation. The objective of this project is to remove this dependency on a closed source software and build an open-source solution tailored for LoopSim requirements.

We also need to integrate this project with the existing parser so as to automate the flow from running the script and building the workflow to parsing it. The proposed solution will make it easier to web host the LoopSim project.
